I almost can't even type out this post because I can't stop eating what I'm trying to tell you how to make. Did that confuse you? Let me explain... after making this the other day, I haven't stopped nom-ing it down since. This roasted red pepper dip is SO easy and SO delicious you won't be able to get enough.

This is such a great recipe for someone trying to eat clean, but also for people who dont realllllly care what they're eating, they just want it to be delicious! Because this is just that: DELICIOUS. (I think I use the word "delicious" too much, anyone have some good synonyms for me to start using??)

So let me just jump right to it so I can get back to stuffing my face with this dip...

Here's what you do:1.) Lay out your ingredients and get your handy dandy food processor ready to go.2.) Drain roasted red pepper jar, add roasted red peppers and garlic to food processor, puree.3.) Add your cup of walnuts and turn the food processor back on to form a paste.4.) Add oil, onion powder, salt and pepper. Puree.5.) Serve immediately or chill in the fridge for a bit first, up to you!

Step 1) Get out all of the ingredients and prep your food processor. (pictured is both olive oil and coconut oil, you will pick one or the other - you do not need both)

Step 3) Add the walnuts, and start that bad boy back up again. This should form a paste like substance that kind of looks like hummus.

Step 4) Pick your poison (aka coconut oil or olive oil) and add oil, onion powder, salt and pepper. Then turn the food processor back on to mix everything one final time.

Step 5) I put mine in the fridge for a little bit while I cleaned up my food processor, put away my ingredients, and chopped up a cucumber. This was just the perfect amount of time to give it a little chill.

So here's the deal. This is seriously SO good. I made it before I made dinner as an appetizer for Blain and I. We devoured it. Like, in seconds. I'm not even kidding. I took the picture below probably 60 seconds after we tried it for the first time.

So what did I do? I cut up like 2 more cucumbers and ditched the little plate, I got out a huge dinner plate and we started all over again. (you can see the sad, empty, completely devoured little plate next to the new and improved huge plate of cucumbers).

This was about a week ago. And since then, I've made this dip every few days. It's just a GREAT staple item to have in your fridge as a snack. You can dip almost anything in it. I even made a batch for a Super Bowl party we went to last night and it was a huge hit! I brought cucumber slices along with the dip to the party and also made some homemade sweet potato chips. They tasted great with it as well! And currently.. as I sit here typing this post, I'm eating the Super Bowl Party left overs as we speak (or type, or whatever).

I hope you try this, and LOVE it! I'd hope to hear about it if you do!

I CANNOT wait to try this red bell pepper dip recipe! I love that the ingredients are simple, healthy and clean!
